The Irish Era of Pirate Radio Part 3

The Irish Pirates started soon after the close down of the off shore stations in 1967. It took just over 10 years for them to really develop in Dublin, and explode across the country from 1978. A feature in Melody Make or the New Musical Express, and the BBC Nationwide program, showed this to a wider audience world wide.
The Radio Caroline veterans Robbie Dale and Chris Cary started their stations, Sunshine Radio, and Radio Nova in 19890 and 1981, respectfully.
This made high power AM and high power FM, in full professional quality and marketing set sale in Dublin city.
This became the era of the SuperPirates. In Part 3 we catch Sunshine and Radio Nova as they commenced their hyper success. Then in 1983 , the raids in May, instigated by the UK government via Belfast, made the Irish government move, and it back fired immensely.
Thus the activity of the Intelligence Trabnsfer Sequence was seen operating, but we did not know that then.

Released from the Bases project archive, straight from the VHS ,

This requires enhancement and, ultimatly made into a film.
